Chopped, Grated Items
Can Be Prepared Early
RALEIGH — Recipes
often call for ingredients
that need to be chopped,
grated, diced or minced
before you can use them.
Often it’s possible to do
this time-consuming work
ahead of time, and freeze
the ingredients until they
are needed.
Here are some time-sav
ing examples from exten
sion food specialists,
North Carolina State Uni
versity :
Cheese may be grated
a pound or two at a time.
One pound makes about
four cups of grated
cheese. Measure the grat
ed cheese in one-cup units
—or in the amount you
will want most often. Put
in air-tight containers or
wrap in moisture-vapor
proof plastic wrap and
freeze.
Chop a pound or two
of onions at a time, either
with a knife or in your
blender if you prefer
finely chopped pieces.
Wrap in %-cup or ^-cup
units in air-tight plastic
wrap. Place packages in
a glass freezer jar that
can be tightly closed. This
is necessary to keep the
onion odor from escaping.
Freeze.
Green peppers can be
chopped and frozen; par
sley can be minced and
then put in the freezer.
Both should be packaged
in convenient sized units,
then put in air-tight con
tainers.
Bread crumbs can be
kept on hand in the freez
er, too. Save bread heels
until you have several.
Crumb them in the blend
er, or between two sheets
of wax paper with your
rolling pin. Store in an
air-tight freezer contain
er. If you like, you can
lightly butter the heels
before crumbling them —
to make buttered crumbs.

Spare Time Activities
Useful at Retirement
By JAN CHRISTENSEN
N. C. State University
“What can I do in my
spare time that will be
useful when I retire?”
Herbert Taylor of
Goldsboro has found a
number of answers to that
question, including wood
working.
Taylor doesn’t work on
the usual conventional
items from patterns or by
duplication, explains Mrs.
Evelyn Raper, home eco
nomics extension agent
Instead, he experiments
with shapes, sizes and
kinds of wood and follows
his inatirct to create un
usual lamp bases, candle
sticks, plaques and similar
items.
Taylor also teams up
with his wife. Using her
poems, handsomely print
ed frscrfpt'and bordered
with a floral design, he
makes plaques.
Whether he sells them
or not making these items
stems to put a twinkle in
\
Taylor’s eye and purpose
in his days.
HELP RETARDED
Over 1,300 persons, at
tending the Craft Corner
a craftman’s fair in Davie
County, helped contribute
to the Association for Re
tarded Children.
The Craft Corner, fea
tured 33 individual exhi
bits shoeing the work of
38 craftsmen, says Nancy
Hartman, home economics
extension agent.
Each craftsman donated
a percentage of his sales
to the Davie County As
sociation for Retarded
Children, she added. This
year's check was over
1900.
The Craft Corner began
in 1969 with a seven-man
exhibit sponsored by the
Davie County Extension
Service.

I want to wish you a happy
NEW YEAR!
And may each day fill your
heart with good cheer . . .
Bringing the best in life —
happiness... good health ...
The presence of loved ones ...
your greatest wealth!
Treasure the blessings the old
year has brought;
Have faith in God with your
every thought
As we start into the year that
is new,
And HE will bring great Joy
and peace to you!
—Neva Taylor Harrington
A New Year! That has a
wonderful sound. Each heart
has a hope, a wish, a plan, for
the coming year. May each of
them come true for you.
Gardening: What’s new for
1975? It’s always exciting to
see what the new in
troductions are ... a new
pansy that’s tolerant to heat,
and blooms from spring to fall
— “Imperial Blue’’ — an FI
hybrid... Carnation “Juliet”,
a superb rich scarlet . . .
Cleome “Queen Mixture” — a
color range of white, salmon,
pink, carmine, rose, mauve
and purple shades . . . Aster
“Red Mound” and Zinnia
“Candy Cane.”
Marigolds are marvelous in
the garden, and the new ones
are fantastic. In fact, there’s
one named “Fantastic”. It
looks like a giant chrysan
themum. “Golden Hawaii” is
new. “Orange Hawaii” on the
market before, is the first
margold ever created with
.sweet-scented flowers and
ordorless foliage. They’re
both gorgeous
In the “near-to-white” big
marigolds: “Man-on-the
Moon,” “Cream Puff.”
“Alaska” »wi “Whitematt”
are best bets.
If you want little ones for
edging, borders, window
boxes, etc. buy the nugget
marigolds. “Gold Nugget”,
Orange Nugget” and Yellow
Nugget.” They’re the earliest
flowering and never stop until
frost.
Fine for rock gardens are
the Signet Marigolds. They’re
free flowering, dwarf, have
fine lacy foliage, and masses
of small flowers. “Golden
Gem” and “Lemon Gem” are
ideal.
More to come about flowers
for your flower garden in
weeks to come. Right now
please pass on these words to
everyone who loves America:
“Everytime you plant
something — A seed, a bulb, a
plant,. — you beautify
America and help to purify
her air. You and every other
person in this country can help
create a better place in which
to live. Plant trees, shrubs,
lawns, everything and each
thing helps. Do your part that
we may have good air to
breathe and beauty all around
us.”
I would like to salute The
Town Officials of Brevard for
the beautiful Christmas
decorations enhancing our
already BEAUTIFUL
BREVARD. The decorations
are truly lovely and I feel such
pride when I ride through our
streets. I just hope no one —
but no one — has taken this
beauty for granted, for I know
much thought and hard work
preceded their perfection.
Again I salute you!
Happy New Year Everyone,
and So long, Gardeners!
